Chapter 356 1 A smooth journey
"Grandma, don't worry. They know the route, and there are guards escorting them all the way." Qi Xingyun hurriedly comforted her.
However, Xiao Cao'er could not contain her excitement and volunteered, "Grandma, let me go pick up my parents. I haven't seen them for a long time and I want to see them as soon as possible." After all, she had been away from home for some time, and Xiao Cao'er's longing for her parents had already surged like a tide.
"Okay, okay, okay! Then you go and answer it." Old Mrs. Yang clapped her hands with a smile on her face, shouting excitedly, with joy shining in her eyes.
In fact, Old Mrs. Yang also missed her son and daughter-in-law. After all, she had never been away from home for so long.
Seeing this, Qi Xingyun on the side said quickly: "In that case, I will go with you." His voice was gentle and firm, revealing a reassuring power.
At this moment, all the gifts on the carriage had been unloaded and neatly placed on the ground, leaving the carriage empty.
"Then let's go!" Xiao Cao'er said to Qi Xingyun with a smile.
After Qi Xingyun and Xiao Cao'er got on the carriage, Yun Liu acted as the coachman. He gently waved the whip, and the wheels slowly turned and drove towards the city gate.
When Qi Xingyun and Xiao Cao'er's carriage arrived at the city gate, the carriage from Pingjiang County also arrived.
When the guards saw the carriage driven by Yun Liu, they quickly tightened the reins in their hands. The horse neighed loudly, raised its front hooves high, and then stopped steadily. It saluted to Qi Xingyun and said, "Greetings, sir, and hello, young lady!"
Qi Xingyun nodded slightly and asked, "Thank you for your hard work. Did everything go smoothly along the way?"
One of the guards quickly replied, "My Lord, it is our duty. The journey has been smooth. Please rest assured."
As the carriage got closer and closer to the city gate, Yang Dashan and Li, who were sitting inside, could no longer suppress their excitement and curiosity. They gently lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out carefully.
As the carriage gradually stopped, a clear and pleasant shout came into my ears: "Dad, Mom!"
Xiao Cao'er couldn't wait to jump off the carriage. Like a happy little deer, she ran towards the carriage where Yang Dashan was.
In the blink of an eye, she arrived in front of the carriage. She pushed herself with her hands, pushed hard with her feet, and jumped onto the carriage nimbly.
Qi Xingyun followed Xiao Cao'er, gazing tenderly at the petite and lively figure in front of him.
Xiao Cao'er jumped lightly and jumped onto Yang Dashan's carriage steadily. After confirming that Xiao Cao'er was safely on the carriage, Qi Xingyun also stepped forward.
Walking closer, Qi Xingyun bowed slightly, smiled, and said politely: "Uncle Yang, Auntie, you have traveled all the way, it's really hard for you two."
Yang Dashan looked at the imposing young man in front of him, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he quickly responded: "Xingyun, why are you here too?"
Mrs. Li, who was standing by, also had a big smile on her face and said kindly, "Xingyun, why are you here with our girl?"
At this time, Xiao Cao'er, who was sitting in the carriage, could no longer contain her inner joy and shouted impatiently: "Dad, Mom, you are finally here! I have been looking forward to seeing you earlier for a while, I miss you so much!" While speaking, she did not forget to wink at Qi Xingyun playfully.
"I miss you, too!" Li's face was full of smiles, her eyes sparkling with joy. She opened her arms excitedly, hugged her daughter tightly, stroked her hair gently and said, "My dear daughter, you miss me so much! Tell me quickly, is your grandma in good health?"
"I'm fine, mother!" Xiao Cao'er snuggled obediently in Li's arms and responded with the same joy.
"Grandma originally wanted to come along to pick you up, but I talked her out of it, so she went home right away to save herself the trouble." As she spoke, Xiao Cao'er winked at Li mischievously.
At this time, Qi Xingyun turned to look at Yang Dashan and said with a smile: "Let's go back first. Blocking the road here will delay other people's passage. If you have anything to say, it won't be too late to talk slowly when we get home."
"Yes, yes, Xingyun is the one who thinks things through! Let's set off now." Yang Dashan nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.
When Qi Xingyun saw Xiao Cao'er was going to take Yang Dashan's carriage, he turned around and ordered the guards behind him: "Okay, let's go back to the Yang family first." After that, he also got on the carriage.
After everyone was seated, the guard shook the reins gently and the carriage started slowly. Along the way, the wheels rolled forward, raising a little dust. Yang Dashan, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but ask Xiaocao'er again: "Xiaocao'er, is your grandma okay at home? And your brothers, have they been naughty recently?"
"Dad, don't worry!" Xiao Cao smiled sweetly and replied in a voice as clear as a silver bell, "Grandma eats well and sleeps well, she is in good spirits!
As for the brothers, they are all very well behaved, they don't cause any trouble, they go to work in the teahouse every day, and the eldest and fourth brothers are also very serious when they go to the government office and attend court." Hearing his daughter's words, Yang Dashan nodded with satisfaction, a relieved smile on his face.
